Comfortable and interesting dress
Comfortable and fun dress for a night out! The sheer panel is a nice detail. Open back but can wear a bra. Lovely color

Fun, formal black dress
Loved this dress! Wore it to a nice dinner out. It was comfortable and flattering. Worked without a bra. The material is thick, so good for winter.

So short but absolutely adorable
I wore this dress for a family photoshoot and it turned out great. It was shorter than I was expecting, but the oversized style worked well.

Perfect fall dress
Super comfortable and cute! The open back is lovely - I had no issues wearing this without a bra. I loved the mustard color, though it's not the most flattering color on me.

Classy, sexy elegance
This is different than the types of dresses I normally wear, but it was so much fun! Felt very sexy and elegant. Got tons of compliments. Perfect for a formal wedding. I was worried the high slit would be too much, but it's well balance by the neckline.

Very fun and unique dress!
I took a risk and rented this dress for my sister's 21st birthday, and it was absolutely perfect! Great for a fun night out. Comfortable and cool. Got a ton of compliments on it. Definitely the type of dress you really need to commit to rocking.

Adorable dress perfect for a holiday party
This dress is insanely cute! As others mentioned, it's all about the bow detail on the back. Comfortable to wear without a bra, but quite tight around the waist. The biggest problem I had was the zipper gets stuck at a few different seam areas.

Flowy and feminine birthday dress
I rented this dress for a dinner out using my birthday credit. I loved the open back detail, and had no issues wearing it without a bra. I thought the neckline worked well -- didn't find it too high or constricting. Really lovely colors and fun to twirl in. The length was a bit awkward on me (would have worked better if I were a bit taller). I could have done without the side lace-up detail, but it was my husband's favorite feature of the dress.

Open back stunner
This wasn't the most flattering dress I've rented for my body type, but it's still a very lovely dress. I had forgotten that the back was totally open, so I couldn't wear a normal bra. It was fine to go braless, though not the most supportive.

Sparkly and sexy dress
I definitely had to squeeze into this dress, but it's super flattering! And I was able to wear it with a normal bra, which was a major plus. Super fun -- got a ton of compliments -- would rent again. I did have friends complain that the sequins made it uncomfortable to hug me, but I didn't find it bad to wear.

Flattering regal dress perfect for fall wedding
This was a last minute back up dress, but it worked out pretty perfectly for an outdoor fall wedding. I found it quite tight in the arms but otherwise comfortable and flattering.

Sexy and flattering date night dress
This dress is super tight, but it's so flattering that it's worth the squeeze in. I wore it comfortably without a bra. Agree with others the the neck strap is a little long, but wasn't a major issue.

Simple elegance
This dress was absolutely perfect for a black tie optional wedding. It's comfortable, flattering, and surprisingly elegant. While both the small and medium sizes fit, the top was a bit tight on my chest and shoulders in the small size so the medium was more flattering. This difference is apparent in the second picture where I'm wearing the small on the left and my sister is wearing the medium on the right. The dress was little long on me even with 3 inch heels, but the slit does make it much easier to walk in.

Solid summery dress
I wore this dress for a dinner out with my husband -- it's probably more appropriate for a summer wedding but it brought some cheer to our Boston winter. I found it comfortable to wear without a bra, which is a big plus given the little spaghetti straps. Since the dress didn't have an eye hook at the top of the zipper, I ended up wearing the larger size because I was worried the smaller one would slowly unzip on its own. The nude underlayer wasn't a great shade on me and I didn't love the line running around the waist, but it's absolutely a fun cute dress otherwise.

Great dress for a variety of events
I rented this dress for a holiday party and it was perfect! My sister wore the backup size -- the 4 and 6 were pretty similar except the straps seemed way longer on the 6. . Super cute black dress that would be appropriate for a bunch of different events. The skirt is flowy and fun, and the small cutouts are a great touch. Definitely one of my favorite rentals so far.

Slinky black dress was perfect for wedding
This was actually my backup dress after there were issues with my initial order, but I'm super happy I had the opportunity to try it out! It's a strange dress without a zipper so you literally step into it and then shimmy in, so it does take a bit of work. However the fabric is very stretchy and looks super flattering when on. Surprisingly comfortable given that it hugs your body. I had no problems wearing it without a bra. I was worried it would be overly formal for the wedding I was going to, but it was absolutely perfect and I received a ton of compliments.

Perfect adorable dress for a wedding
I recently wore this dress to a friend's wedding, and I felt absolutely amazing in it! It's super flattering with its tight top and flare out skirt (which was a bit poofier than I was expecting but looked great). The see-through detail on the bottom of dress adds just the right amount of fun. The wedding photographer complimented my dress and my husband said it's the best thing I've rented so far -- so awesome dress all around :)

Decent date night dress
I thought this dress was okay -- I didn't love it as much as I was expecting. It was comfortable and fit pretty well, but the length felt a bit awkwardly long on me. It's a solid dress, but I've worn better on RTR.

Gorgeous dress with lovely details
This dress was super flattering -- it hugged my body while still being comfortable and easy to wear. The back is gorgeous and it has some fun sheer panels that I didn't notice when I ordered the dress. I'm always wary of open back dresses, but I didn't wear a bra and it was great. I wore it with flats and it was a little long but totally manageable. Probably would have been ideal with a small heel.

This dress was perfect for a dinner out with my husband. It's very flattering; the thick material helps hold everything in. I was wary of the mesh back, but I wore it without a bra and it was super comfortable.

Great bit of sparkle
I wore this dress to my rehearsal dinner, and it definitely made me feel special. It's not the most flattering dress I've rented on here; I thought it it hung around my waist a bit oddly. But I did get a ton of compliments and it was very appropriate for the occasion. I will say that the two dresses I got were quite different colors -- one was a bright blue and the other was a darker navy. I'm not sure why they were so different, but I ended up going with the darker color since the 8 fit me better.

Super flattering dress perfect for lots of occasions!
This dress is insanely flattering -- it's tight but the material is thick and stretchy and manages to hold everything in. I wore it to a wedding and felt sexy but not inappropriate. The length helps keep it super classy. There are also these awesome little bra clips in the straps. I absolutely loved this dress!

Stunning dress for wedding
My first dress choice wasn't available, so I got this one at the last minute instead. I'm so glad it worked out that way because this dress is gorgeous! The pictures really don't do justice to how sparkly it is. I wore it to an outdoor summer wedding and felt absolutely amazing in it. It's honestly probably better suited for a fall or winter event, but it was so beautiful that I didn't even care. The top is structured so I had no problem going without a bra. I'm always worried about my big hips, but the bottom is flow-y and flattering. Great first experience with RTR.
